Introducing The Dramattic

Hiding upstairs is The Dramattic, Nottingham’s very own rave cave. It’s for the eccentric at heart: a fancy dress wall, foosball, a games console with SingStar karaoke and FIFA. The pizza is at the heart of it all, naturally, with our feasting menu served family-style and in abundance

The Dramattic is available for private hire, perfect for birthdays, work parties, group dinners or any occasion that needs a bit more character than a standard restaurant booking. Get in touch at nottingham@pizzapilgrims.co.uk to find out more.

Good For…

Whether it’s a casual lunch, a Friday night out or a group dinner that runs longer than planned, Pizza Pilgrims Nottingham is set up for it. The menu covers vegetarian, vegan and halal options, gluten free bases are available, and the restaurant is family friendly throughout.

For groups of 8 or more, feasting menus make ordering for a crowd easy and enjoyable, a selection of pizzas served sharing-style so everyone gets a taste of everything. Bookings are available for those who like to plan ahead, and walk-ins are always welcome.

The Pizza Pilgrims Experience

Pizza Pilgrims started as a pilgrimage, literally. In 2012, our founders Thom and James quit their jobs, jumped in a three-wheel Piaggio van at the toe of Italy and drove 4,500km north, eating and learning everything they could about authentic Neapolitan pizza. That obsession is what’s been on the plate ever since.

At Nottingham, that means 72-hour double-fermented dough, San Marzano tomatoes, fior di latte mozzarella and a 500°C oven. Iconic Neapolitan pizzas alongside a few signatures worth getting to know: the double pepperoni & spicy honey is a crowd favourite, the mushroom & truffle is the one people come back for. Cold beers, cocktails and outdoor seating in summer round things off nicely.

Pizza in Nottingham

Pizza Pilgrims Nottingham is on Carlton Street, right in the heart of the city. It’s the kind of place that’s easy to slot into your day, a proper sit-down lunch, a post-work dinner, a spontaneous pizza night. Nottingham pizza doesn’t need to be complicated. Sometimes you just want something made well, in a room with good energy.

If you’re looking for great pizza in Nottingham, here’s what you’ll find at Pizza Pilgrims: 72 hours double-fermented dough, Italian ingredients sourced for flavour rather than convenience, and a kitchen that takes the craft of Neapolitan pizza seriously. We’ve been making pizza this way since 2012, not because it’s the quickest route, but because it makes a genuine difference to what ends up in the box or on the plate.

Takeaway and Click & Collect are available through pizzapilgrims.orderswift.com/nottingham, and delivery is available to postcodes across the local area. Or book a table and come in, the outdoor terrace is worth it when the weather plays along. Plan your visit at pizzapilgrims.co.uk/pizzerias/nottingham/

Authentic Neapolitan Pizza in Nottingham

Neapolitan pizza has a protected tradition behind it, specific techniques, specific ingredients, ovens running at temperatures most home kitchens would find alarming. Pizza Pilgrims follows that tradition closely: ’00’ flour, San Marzano tomatoes DOP, Campanian fior di latte, 500°C heat. The result is a crust that’s light, pillowy and properly charred, just like the ones that started the whole pilgrimage in the first place.

Why stop at four cheeses when you can have eight? 🧀 Ricotta, buffalo mozzarella, fior di latte, Gorgonzola DOP, ricotta salata, provola, Pecorino Romano DOP and burrata — finished with smoked chilli jam. The 8-Cheese. Twice as good as a four-cheese. That’s just maths.
